Ingredients
6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cooked and chopped)
3 large eggs
1 head iceberg lettuce, shredded
2 ripe tomatoes, seeded and chopped
¾ cup blue cheese, crumbled
3 green onions, chopped
1 avocado, peeled, pitted, and diced
1 (8 ounce) bottle Ranch-style salad dressing
Instructions
Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil, then cover and remove the pan from heat. Let the eggs sit for 10 to 12 minutes, then cool, peel, and chop them.
While the eggs are cooking, cook the chicken breasts in a skillet or grill until fully cooked. Chop the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
In a large salad bowl, arrange the shredded lettuce. Then, arrange the chopped chicken, tomatoes, blue cheese, green onions, avocado, chopped eggs, and any other desired ingredients in rows on top of the lettuce.
Drizzle the salad with Ranch-style dressing just before serving.
Notes
Dressing Variations: Swap Ranch dressing with blue cheese dressing for a classic touch or opt for a vinaigrette for a lighter alternative.
Cheese Options: Replace blue cheese with feta or cheddar for a milder flavor.
Greens: While iceberg lettuce is traditional, you can use romaine or spinach for a nutrient-packed twist.
